—My older brother Philip, the =ocket scientist, died
That
night, I went on Google and found out, for the =irst time, about his career, which began as a member of first hired =roup
of physicists at NASA in 1958 (to work on Project Mercury =longside Alan Shepard and John Glenn) and his work as one
of the =egendary "MAD scientists of MPD" in using plasma =hysics to provide the rocket thrust to achieve reliable orbit;
and =ulminated as the technical head of the amazingly successful NASA/FAA =ffort to improve passenger aircraft safety.
Who knew? We never had a =onversation about it and we did stay in touch over the years. See the =iece I wrote and the
obit in the local NASA paper below.

pushes-the-button
—Anyone I should see in =ondon?? My Al project is taking off. I believe it will be the only =seful book as no one in the
project is in the bag. You might want to =hink about providing some support as I am convening meetings to get the
=ontributors to talk to each other. Here's the Cambridge meeting two =eeks ago, and the first meeting last year...
